We know that Marvel sold off mutants, direct relations and related characters as part of the X-Men agreement with FOX. Blade is with Marvel, and Psylocke is with FOX - Feige has stated that joint ownership such as that with Wanda and Pietro is very rare. It has been speculated that Marvel retains control over all Marvel alien races such as the Kree and the Skrulls, with a few aliens (Galactus, Surfer, Annihilus, Super-Skrull) residing at FOX under the FF contract. My guess is the X-Men contract didn't include the Starjammers but did include Alpha Flight, but nothing has been confirmed to date.

If an Excalibur movie happens and it's missing Blade or Psylocke depending on who makes it, will it still grab people's interest? Granted, I was wrong about an Avengers film without Spider-Man.

The original Excalibur team was made up of four muties and Captain Britain, who FOX likely does not have the rights to. Colossus might make an ok substitute. Listening to Singer's speech in Montreal about a Marvel "mash-up", I thought that he might be talking about this team rather than an FF/X-Men crossover.

I don't think you have to worry so much about some of those. Especially things like Excalibur or Starjammers. Fox wouldn't have the balls to try making films like that. Too ambitious...they like to play it safe.

I know that he's overexposed but HOW can you even have Alpha Flight without Wolverine?

Also, if I recall correctly, both Marvel and Fox can use both the Kree since Marvel owns Inhumans and Ms. Marvel while Fox owns Fantastic Four. I'm not sure how Marvel has access to the Skrulls since they're usually Fantastic Four villains.

When it comes to overlap between studios, I'm not going to be shocked if Ronan pops up in the Fantastic Four reboot or Viper makes it into Captain America 3.

Viper will probably be called Madame Hydra in a MCU film. And will look very different to X-Men's Viper except for the green outfits.

The contracts wouldn't list every character that Marvel and other studios own. More than likely the contract with Fox says "X-men and related characters." So in the grand scheme of things these three properties: Alpha Flight, Excalibur and Starjammers belong to Fox.

Deathbird is more of an X-men villain than a Ms Marvel villain.

The contracts wouldn't list every character that Marvel and other studios own. More than likely the contract with Fox says "X-men and related characters." So in the grand scheme of things these three properties: Alpha Flight, Excalibur and Starjammers belong to Fox.

Deathbird is more of an X-men villain than a Ms Marvel villain.

If that's the case, then the reason why Marvel can use Ronan who debuted in Fantastic Four, appeared in multiple Fantastic Four cartoons and is seen as a FF villain in GOTG is probably because he's considered to also be part of the GOTG brand as well.

Either that or Marvel and Fox decided to trade the rights to Ronan and Viper as the latter is more of a Captain America villain than anything else.

At the same time, I'm hoping it's the former. This would lead to Marvel being capable of giving themselves a reason to develop GOTG and Ms. Marvel so that they can leach off of Fox's properties. This way, Marvel can claim that some of the Skrulls like Hulkling and Jazinda are technically part of the Hulk rights but Fox can still use Lyja and Super-Skrull as they're related to the Fantastic Four.

When it comes to the Kree, I think that Ronan is a shared character but the rest of the Kree are part of the GOTG, Ms. Marvel and Inhumans rights.

The Shi'Ar are a bit iffier. My best guess is that Lilandra, Erik The Red, D'Ken and Gladiator belong to Fox since they're almost exclusively tied to the X-Men. Korvus and Vulcan will probably be shared since they're just as related to GOTG and Deathbird is also tied to Ms. Marvel so she's probably also shared. Nova Prime definitely belongs to Marvel.

The Spartoi are too tied to Star-Lord so they're off-limits to Fox, same with the Badoon, Inhumans, Builders, Chitauri, Rigelians and Eternals.

I'm not sure if the Brood are shared since they're tied to both Ms. Marvel as well as the X-Men.

Fox probably has exclusive rights to the Zenn-Lavians, anything from the Negative Zone, Birjans, Technarchy, Watchers and the Phalanx.

The celestials have a connection to Apocalypse but I doubt that Fox can use them so while I'm admitting that I'm may be wrong, I think that they're exclusive to Marvel.
